A new method based on a light-gas gun has been proposed to synthesize Nb-Al alloys, and a recovery capsule has been investigated. The copper-coated sample is accessible after shock wave loading. In this paper, we successfully synthesize Nb-Al alloys, which are high-temperature structural materials. X-ray diffraction is employed to clarify the structural characteristics of compounds after impact, and the simulation of X-ray diffractions is employed to clarify the structure. In detail, tetragonal NbAl3 alloys certainly appeared in the recovery capsule; this alloy is considered to be best candidate.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
